Battery Racks
SBS offers standard and seimsic battery racks from stock.
We can provide a battery rack for every brand and type of battery on the market.
Our battery racks accommodate flooded and sealed lead-acid as well as Ni-Cad batteries up to 3-tiers high with Seismic Zone 4 certification.
All rack systems are enamel painted and/or epoxy coated. The rails are either coated with a black polyethylene or have a plastic insulating cover for additional acid resistance and lower friction for installation ease.
 
We also offer spill containment systems consisting of interlocking HDPE pans and flame-retardant acid absorbing/neutralizing pillows.

 

Custom DC Cabinets / Enclosures
SBS will custom design and build an enclosure to fit your needs.  Whether you need one or a hundred enclosures we can help design a solution that fits your requirements.  We can integrate our our own products or equipment that you already have.

 

SBS Cool Cell/Enclosures®
Cool Cell® passive temperature regulating enclosures offer reliable, cost-effective protection from summer heat and winter freezing for batteries. The Cool Cell® enclosure protects batteries from destructive temperature extremes in the harshest climates. It doubles and triples battery life in hot weather, and ensures at least 80% capacity in the cold. Cool Cells® are offered in many standard sizes. They can be built to hold batteries, battery/charger combinations and even DC distribution panels. Batteries can be installed on pull-out drawers or fixed shelves.

 

 

Chargers

The correct  charging system means everything to the performance & service life of your battery system.  The environment, duty cycle & battery chemistry play a crucial part in selecting the correct charging system.  SBS understands which charger designs and features will be optimal for your particular battery string & application.
